How to Collapse a Superpower

Today on Far Future Horizons we present another exciting episode of Through the Wormhole hosted by Morgan Freeman.

In this installment we explore the ultimate act of cyber terrorism.

With a little imagination, could a few terrorists sabotage a mighty nation? Perhaps even tear down modern civilization?

The stability of the US, Europe, China, or any global power depends on high-speed digital communication. Our increasing dependence on digital devices and global interactivity may be placing us in grave danger.

Scientists around the world are dealing with new threats such as body hacking, Trojan horse viruses, and brain-damaging Internet addiction.

But what if the ultimate threat isn’t an attack on technology, but the technology? Could the final superpower be the disembodied mind of the Internet itself?

This episode of Through the Wormhole is available from Amazon’s Instant Video.
